    Go to graphics options and turn "Unit Size" up higher.

    Low - 40
    Medium - 80
    Large - 120
    Huge 160

    that should not be the problem and if it is, it is still a bug.

    Actually below a certain size, the formation doesn't function even if you start at a bigger size.

    What Munky said. With such low unit sizes it only takes a handful of missing soldiers to kill the square function. But yes it's a bug if they can't do it with 40 men.

    i know... but the size should diminish with the starting size. so if 40 is the standard than 10 should be the least number to form a square...

    Yes it should be proportional to the unit size you select. Unless of course there is some technical issue.

    Actually, it is proportional. Every time I've played, below a certain fraction, the company couldn't form squares.
